do I need to charge these for a certain amount of time before 1st use? And did anyone have issues pairing this with their Samsung Galaxy Smart Phone?

I believe the first time I charged it a couple of hours and the charge lasted an insane amount of time. It was odd. This is a great product for the money but there's no indicator that tells me when it's time to charge. I use mine when I run and when it starts cutting out a lot, that's when I know when to charge it. I use it with an iPhone.

Yes. The unit comes dead and it takes about 20 min. to charge it. Did you already buy it? Mines just broke. Now it won't hold a charge. It will work for 10min. and it turns off. I think I might try Motorola next.

I had a hard time getting mine to pair with my iPhone when following the instructions, which were useless. I looked on YouTube and found instructions that worked. I loved the headset, but had to return it when I could not get it to recharge.

It is always good to fully charge things like this before use, ours took about an hour when we first got it. You will be able to tell it is fully charged when the LED goes from Red to Blue. We do have issues pairing it to our Dell tablet (which is Android running x86 architecture so that could be part of the reason) but we don't have any problems pairing it to our Nexus 5 which is running vanilla Android so your mileage may vary.

Do not drain them. Charge overnight BEFORE you use them. I know in the past to drain then charge, but not with these.

Hold the round button down till it flashes quickly, and release. Put your device to make it discoverable. It should say pairing. Click connect to the device name and you should be linked. Maybe your over charging? I had no issue. Love them.

I had the same problem. I don't think these are blue tooth enable and don't link. There is another model that is blue tooth and I believe they link, but have not tried that. I have one of each and they do not link either.

I have two pair for my grandchildren and they work great. At first I did have "experiences" with them. The button on the earpiece is a band shifter. But as I read, your problem is with charging....had the same problem initially. I became so frustrated. It ended up being my fault. Most of the time when your phones run out of energy, you just set them on the charger WITHOUT turning them off. They WILL NOT charge while the power button is on. Hope this helps......they really are great inexpensive headphones.

I've had to delete the headphones and re-pair them with my laptop several times. No issues with the phone though. I almost wonder if having both the phone and laptop paired that one will dominate over the other. Not sure, but I have to turn Bluetooth off of my phone to get the laptop to pair and connect.

I charged the sunglasses for 2 hours, the blue light was off, and I went to bluetooth setting on my cellphone turn it on. I hold down the middle button until it the sunglasses light flashes blue and red now it in the pairing mode. The cellphone would list the sunglasses as paired. If you can't do it the first time make sure some other device paired is off, such as, another blue tooth!

I know you can't pair too speakers with one device . I always run mine off the Samsung Galaxy , but I seem to remember having a problem when a we tried pairing with a freind's phone when my battery ran out. Sorry I don't know foor sure.

Yes. I will pair will almost every blue tooth product. It does keep a good charge but be careful with the waterproof plug. It does fall off if pulled to hard.

They work via blue tooth. I pair it with my Samsung Galaxy note 3 with no problems. It should be just as easy with any blue tooth enabled iphone.

You have to pair every time you shut it down and restart, olso charge it or it won't pair either

Below is a response I provided earlier, but I want to add to it. Make sure you turn your phone and the device off. Then turn on the phone first. On your phone, make certain your bluetooth is on. Then turn the earphones on. Look at your phone and search for blue tooth device. Look to pair the device. Once you have paired it. Read below. Here's a little extra that wasn't asked. Make sure that when you charge the device that you unplug it after the blue light appears or the battery life will decline. This happened to me and I had to return it because it would only hold its charge for 45 minutes. To turn the device on. Make sure that you hold down the on/ off button until you hear it beep twice and while still holding it down you will hear a second beep. The second beep may take a few seconds. After you hear these two sets of beeps, then go to your Blue Tooth settings and activate the headphones. The name of the headphones may say Mini Silver or something totally different. Try to connect anything that appears in the blue tooth search. After connecting, then turn on your device that you are tiring to listen to. Hope this helps, please let me know.

Yea kinda sounds like a bad set. Mine flash red and blue when pairing. Did you try to double tap the center button on the headphones I think that clears previous paired devices. If that does nothing I'd say they were bad

I had the same problem. I charged them for 18 hours and the red light never went out. Once I paired them with my phone though the charging indicator functioned correctly.

They have a USB cable to charge them, but they only work Bluetooth. They are pretty large, so I am not sure they would be a good choice for a phone. I have a different set that I use with my phone. I bought these a year ago and they work great. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00EDPW2Q8/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o01_s00?ie=UTF8&psc;=1 I am very happy with them. Again, Bluetooth only, USB cable to charge.

No Problem, just be sure you press and hold the power button, until you see the flashing red and blue light, then be sure your device is on, and it is in search mode in your Bluetooth settings setting on your device, it may take several times, but once it is paired, it will automatically detect your device when power is on.Hope this helps, we have had great luck with both "pairing" and use with several of our devices, including our IPhone, watch cellphone, and even kindle pads.

No did you pair the speaker with your phone? I believe you put the speaker in pairing mode by holding down the power button. Check the manual. Be careful with the charging port when you charge it. After about a month mine came lose. It's lightly soldered.
